Thursday, March 3rd, 2005I was lying in bed earlier and my refrigerator kicked on.. it got me thinking about how many artificial sounds I’m subjected to in my own room.. I have two computers on at all times so I always hear either the power supply fan or hard drive, a fan, not to mention the heat/air and fridge.
My grandmother has two lots out in Lake Malone.. now, Lake Malone isn’t as isolated as I would like but it is still very peaceful. There is enough woodland around me that I feel alone.. the sad part is she doesn’t let anyone go when shes not there. (and she hasn’t been in 7 years)
She has a fully renovated trailer on one lot and just woodland on the other.. I wish she’d let me go.. When i’m craving isolation but not full independence from modern society I could go to the trailer.. have the woods around me but the conveniences of home as well..
and when I require full solitude just move down a little bit
It’s times like these that make me miss Kristin.. She of all people could relate to my need to unplug and get out.. and she would probably be betting she could setup camp faster then I could.. =P
